Colm Collins has opted to make no changes to the Clare football side who take on Cork in Cusack Park on Sunday afternoon.

Clare must win to keep their hopes of qualifying for Division 1 of the Allianz National Football League alive.

There are no changes to the starting fifteen who claimed a three point victory against Kildare in Newbridge on Sunday last.

St Breckansโ€™ Joe McGann who netted the decisive goal last weekend is named among the substitutes once again while injury keeps Jamie Malone, Podge Collins and Conor Jordan out of the matchday twenty six.
